Nicest place in the 30 years I've been going to the Island
The grounds are beautiful. Every one had there own place to stay. Claude was the most attentive host ever. Nice pool close beach safe location. Will 100% stay there again.

Week in Paradise
Wonderful week in St Maarten! Claude was fantastic and makes a delicious paella!! The house was perfect for our small group of 5 and could easily accommodate a much larger group both inside and out. The outside area was beautiful with a large pool, multiple sitting areas in and out of the sun, and gorgeous landscaping. You are a very short walk to the beach as well. While there are no restaurants within walking distance, Elizee Taxi (+1 721 522 2877) picked us up and took us anywhere we wanted to go all week for a very reasonable price. All in all, I would definitely recommend Villa Tropicale!!

Translation: Lisa and her friends were impeccable; we even wondered after their departure if the house had been rented. Everything was clean—kitchen, living room, bedrooms, showers, and outdoors were the same. Every time I saw them, they were graceful and very kind. Excellent group, congratulations, hoping to see you again someday. Claude

Absolutely perfect for a family vacation. We LOVE Villa Tropicale!
We agree with the wonderful reviews. Here are our 1500 characters: We were a family vacation of four couples and kids age 5 months, 4, 11, and 14. The parents said a real vacation would be if they didn’t have to prepare meals or clean, so we asked Claude and Monique if they could recommend someone to care for us. Jasmine! Thank you for everything you did, especially the daily pancakes and good cheer, and for taking us to Carnivale. We miss you! Claude’s paella was fantastic! Also Sebastien (Monique’s son) owns Pocketchef SXM and he prepared delicious meals. We particularly enjoyed the raw tuna poke bowls and the grilled swordfish. Thank you Sebastien! Claude and Monique pre-stocked the house with cheeses, wine, baguettes, and basic staples. They had diapers, a baby seat for the bathtub, and organic baby food waiting for us. There was a crib and child’s bed in the large main bedroom which was both quiet and also safe in regards to the pool. We felt very cared for. We love boogie boarding. The surf and currents were too big for us most days, but one day was perfect and we swam for hours. The pool is warm and wonderful & the island has an abundance of calm-water beaches to explore. We adopted a puppy from SXM Paws! If you want to arrive from the airport to a magical oasis where you instantly feel cared for and at home, stop scrolling. Thank you SO much Claude, Monique, Jasmine, & Sebastien. We have the most wonderful memories and are so grateful we found Villa Tropicale!

Amazing hospitality! Wonderful property!
This was a perfect house for our group of 4 couples. Plenty of room for everyone. Each room had its own ensuite. The outdoor area provided hours of entertainment whether we were in the pool, at the bar or at one of the multiple seating areas. You can enjoy lounging in the sun or cooling off under the covered deck. Claude is a “one of a kind” host! He provided everything we could have asked for plus more. He has thought of everything and truly enjoys have guests in his house. We thank you-Claude, for making our trip so memorable!

Paradise on Guana Bay
We have traveled to many VRBO properties before, and Claude and Monique's Villa Tropicale is definitely ranks number one. The facilities and hospitality are outstanding. Having 11 individuals ages from 80 to 5 there was plenty to keep us occupied --beautiful big pool, pool table, table tennis and darts. The kitchen is equipted with all the spices, oils, and cooking equiptment of a gourmet resturant. What set this location apart from others we have visited is the hospitality of Claude and Monique. They made us feel like special guests in their lovely villa. The gardens that Monique maintains around the house are filled with numerous exotic plants. Claude cooked us paella one night that was better than any you would find Valencia. He also brought us croissants and demonstrated how to make crepes. The villa is located for easy travel to all the main beaches on the island. If you plan a first rate vacation in the near future I highly recommend Villa Tropicale The Hall Family

Bonjour Tom Merci pour votre formidable review, ça nous met du baume au cœur, mais il faut dire que vous êtes une famille très particulière, bien éduquée, très sympathique ayant une conversation très intéressante . Cela a été un plaisir de vous avoir reçu, seul regret, c'est de n'avoir pas pu approfondir nos conversations.. Peut être une autre fois, qui sait.. Bien le bonjour à toute votre famille sans oublier votre charmente épouse. Au fait, vous ne m'avez toujours pas dit quel était le secret de votre excellente santé.. Claude /Monique

Great Trip to Villa Tropicale
We had a wonderful stay at Villa Tropicale. The house is older but in good condition. Claude can't do enough for you!! His paella dinner was fantastic. The kitchen is fully equipped for all your cooking needs. The bathrooms are all renovated and very nice. The home is not on the beach but a very short walk. There are no beach chairs for this house which is inconvenient. The house next door has 8 lounge chairs but you can't use them. We recommend they purchase some inexpensive beach chairs. Overall we had a wonderful stay!!

5 star treatment at a 5 star villa
This villa is awesome! Our large group of 12 fit very comfortably in the five bedroom- five bath home. The kitchen is well equipped for large parties. The villa has everything a person would want in a vacation rental: large swimming pool, plenty of outdoor seating, outdoor bar, close proximity to the beach (one minute walk), and a large family room with pool table. The beach is very clean (no sargassum) and some days had waves that were great for boogie boarding Claude the owner went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. There was beer and wine waiting for us upon our arrival and he cooked us a great paella dish one night for dinner that was out of this world! I highly recommend this property!!

Our vacation here was like staying at our own private resort!
This property looks amazing in the photos, and it is even better in person! Our group of 8 (ages 10-72) stayed here for a week and no one was ready to go home at the end of our stay. Claude and his wife, Monique, are the loveliest people you'd ever meet and they have thought of absolutely everything to make your stay here feel luxurious. The villa is just amazing, so beautifully built and decorated, full of gorgeous details, and absolutely pristine. It has tons of space to be together, eat together, play together, but every room, or suite, was very private as well. The kitchen is so well-appointed; they have anything that you could possibly want. The pool is gorgeous and huge...larger than some hotel pools! The yard is filled with beautiful and interesting plants, trees, and flowers. Claude spoiled us by making us paella by the pool one evening, and it was incredible. He and Monique absolutely made us feel like guests in their beautiful home. The beach truly is a 1 minute walk from the home. The waves were so fun and great for body surfing, although, we brought a life jacket for our son and we're really glad that we did. The current is quite strong at times, so just be careful. If you are looking for an amazing property where you could create some wonderful family memories, look no further. This was our first visit to St. Maarten, and we had a wonderful time exploring the island, but even if we had stayed at Villa Tropicale the entire week, we still would have had an amazing vacation. This is just the most outstanding place we have ever stayed. Thank you so much, Claude and Monique!

best property we stayed at as a family vacation
The home was very user friendly. It fit our family of 10 beautifully and there was even a spare room if needed. The kitchen was supplied for the most ambitious cook with everything from deep friers to every glass, dish, spice,cloth, cleaner and tool needed. The flow of the house was open and had large areas as we could all gather together or find a quiet place to read or write. No one felt cramped or confined. The pool area was amazing and where we spent the most time. We all enjoyed the home more than the island and decided to stay home rather than go fishing. My daughter wants to build a pool just like the one we lived in at Villa Tropicale. Claude and his wife were the perfect hosts. They were in touch with us before during and after the visit. No one wanted to leave this restful home with its large bedrooms and baths. The views and location were excellent and we were able to get to groceries, gas and restaurants easily. Claude prepared his famous paella and adapted it to family food allergies. It was fabulous and he gave us a cooking lesson. Order your dinner early in your stay as there was more than half left even after my grandson ate a half dozen chicken legs on his own.. We miss the Villa and Claude and his capable smiling wife. All was near to perfect.

Far better than the pictures. Host were very gracious. We love Claude and Monique!
There are no words to adequately describe how amazing this Villa and the host were. We felt safe and well cared for. I would highly recommend this for large groups and couples

This location will be in our store of beautiful memories for a lifetime.
We had a large group of a variety of ages staying at this location. We all were pleasantly surprised at the how spacious and beautiful this home was. It offered privacy from neighbors and separated each bedroom area from the whole. It was just perfect for our needs. We also were so surprised at the hospitality shown by Claude. He prepared a meal for all of us which was totally above expectations. The pool was wonderful and the ocean with sandy beach was practically out the back door. I recommend this location highly.

Book this home!!
We stayed February 4-11, 2017. 9 people. House indoors- Beautiful. The layout is perfect. It's like you are staying at your own hotel. The downstairs rooms are all off the central courtyard so noise from the living room/outside are kept at bay. The 2 bedrooms upstairs are nice and separate. All rooms have their own bathroom/shower and a safe! Claude provides towels/hairdyer/some toiletries. The pool table was fun to use when needing a break from the sun! Kitchen fully stocked for cooking. House outdoors- Gorgeous. The grounds have tons of plants/trees. We saw iguanas/crab on the property during our stay. The pool area cannot be beat. The tiki bar is where we congregated. The pool is huge and has a big shallow end great for kids. Lots of outdoor seating. Location- Great bay/Phillipsburg was a 10 min drive with a fun boardwalk/great beach. It took just under 30 minutes to get to the airport to see the planes fly over Maho Beach. It takes 27 minutes to get to the top of the French side to Grand Case. You are more secluded which we ended up really liking so you will need a car if you want to explore the island. Lot of traffic between 4 and 6 so try to avoid the roads at that time. Beach- As we visited on a windier month the ocean was only swimmable in the shallow areas for those who are good swimmers. Pretty wavy beach great for body surfing. I was told the beach is much calmer different times of the year when winds die down. Hardly anyone on the beach with you. Things to note- There is no common bathroom, just bathrooms in each bedroom. Our family is very open to sharing bathrooms so when having cocktails we would just use the closest bathroom to the tiki hut which happened to be in my parents master bedroom instead of always walking to our individual ones. If you are a family not open to sharing bathrooms just keep this in mind for those who pick the upstairs rooms which are farthest from the pool/tiki hut. Home in a safe gated community. Very hard to find diet soda. Stop at a big grocery store before getting close to the house. Neither of the 2 close small markets had diet soda. Wifi works well even by the pool. Claude- Awesome guy with a incredible life story. We were unsure if we would like the paella he makes but it was fabulous. You can tell him if you want anything on the side and he had no problems accommodating our needs. I hope we are fortunate to stay here again in the future. You will not regret renting this home.

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL
OUR TRIP TO ST MARTIN WAS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL. THE BEACH HOUSE WAS AMAZING, AND WAS MORE THAN WE COULD EVER HOPE FOR IN A RENTAL PROPERTY. IT WAS CLEAN, BEYOND FUNCTIONAL WITH EVERY AMENITY. CLAUDE, AND HIS FAMILY WERE SO HELPFUL. THEY GAVE US TIPS ON WHERE TO SHOP FOR GROCERIES, GIFTS, AND LOCAL RESTAURANTS. CLAUDE MADE US PAELLA, ONE NIGHT, THAT WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD. ST MARTIN IS A BEAUTIFUL ISLAND THAT I HAVE VISITED ,AS MY SECOND HOME, FOR YEARS. I WILL CONTINUE TO RETURN OFTEN. THE PEOPLE ARE NICE. THE ISLAND IS SAFE. CLAUDE ACTUALLY MADE IT MORE SPECIAL. HIS ATTENTION TO DETAIL IS OUTSTANDING. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO RENT THIS PROPERTY AGAIN. JULIE

Simply The Best! What a Find
Is all I kept hearing from my guests! It's a place that's out of the way but not. Claude is fantastic and cooks a mean paella!! He was also gracious enough to teach me how to cook some super tasty coconut curry shrimp :) As soon as we arrived his son was waiting there for us to escort us to the villa. Easy from there, everything as described, no mosquitos, and plenty of room for a group of 6 adults and 8 kids. Not many other places in SXM can provide for that kind of crew and I've been coming to this awesome island for over 20 years growing up. Claude when you're ready to sell let me know!!

Excellent property and location- and even better service provided by owner Claude
This property is A+! Excellent location and the home is gorgeous. Lots of space, lots to do and in wonderful condition. Claude the owner is very responsive and checked in frequently to make sure our stay was great. One day we even broke the coffee pot and Claude was there quickly and replaced it! The kids loved the pool table for down time and we all loved the pool. The home was beautifully built and decorated and every detail was cared for by Claude. The location on beach allowed for great sunrises and it was easy to get anywhere that we wanted to go. The home is also in a gated community which added to the feeling of safety. Wifi worked great the whole time and each bedroom even had its own wifi. One evening Claude made us a wonderful meal which we greatly appreciated. Claude made everything so simple and easy and truly cared about our enjoyment during the stay. This was a great great vacation and we are so glad that we selected Claude's property. Excellent place!

Amazing !
I recently celebrated my 50th birthday with a group of friends and was very fortunate to have found this location. Not only was the villa amazing and went well beyond any of our expectations, the service that Claude, the owner, provided even topped that. He worked with me for a year prior to our stay to ensure that all of our expectations would be met. He also is a fantastic chef and cooked two meals for us including my birthday dinner. His wife and son also helped out to make my big day one to remember forever. We will definitely be back. Thank you, Claude!!!!
